Walk the Walk: Burberry Prorsum S/S 2014 Menswear Collection

Christoper Bailey finally brought the Burberry Prorsum menswear show to London today and the S/S 2014 collection was a symbol of celebration.

The collection is inspired by Alan Bennett and David Hockney and the pieces are very colourful and sporty. The outerwear pieces are perfect for the spring season and my favourites are the cagoules. If you are into prints, you are going to love the English flowers pattern shirt and also the spot scarves. The colourful Wave sunglasses (even the lenses are in colours) are very trendy and I am also happy to know skinny tie is making a come back.

Overall, this is a well done collection and I am sure cagoules will be a hit next season (you probably will see them appear on numerous editorials). Christopher Bailey, thanks for creating yet another amazing collection!

You can now pre-order most of the pieces at Burberry website and you can even personalize them!

Pros:
- This collection is very sporty with tons of colourful pieces.
- There are a lot of nice knitwear in this collection and they are good for the slightly cool spring weather.
- The Wave sunglasses are cool, especially they come in different colours.
- The cagoule is a must have this coming season.
- And... skinny tie is back!

Cons:
- Would love to see more bag styles. The duffle bag is not really my cup of tea.

Eye Candies:
- Green bonded poplin caban jacket
- Stripes skinny ties
- Spots scarf
- Wave sunglasses
- Red weatherproof bonded cagoule
- Floral print overshirt

Walk the Walk: Alexander McQueen S/S 2014 Menswear Collection

Sarah Burton presented the Alexander McQueen S/S 2014 menswear collection today in London and it was dark and creepy.

The collection reminds me of formal ceremonies but in a very dark way. The pieces have a very haunting vibe because of the dark colours and dark prints. The silhouette of the jacket is longer this season and the pants are more loose fit, which will look great on tall and lean men. Overall, I think this is a departure from the last 2 seasons because the clothes are more experimental and fashion forward.

Now I wonder if some of these prints will be use for Resort collections for the women.

What do you think?

Pros:
- I like the fact that there are a good selection of print pieces in this collection. The colourful floral one is definitely one of my favourites.
- Sarah Burton is playing with the proportion this season and these outfits will look amazing on tall men.
- The entire collection reminds me of people in different ceremonies, especially the ones in India and Middle East.

Cons:
- Not a big fan of the Mary Jane shoes.

Eye Candies:
- Lace blazer
- Skull pattern suit
- Floral suit
- Black rose suit

Walk the Walk: Kay Kwok S/S 2014 Collection

Back in 2012, I featured Kay Kwok on this blog and his abstract print suits are still stuck in my mind. Today, this talented designer finally has his first debut runway show at London Menswear Fashion Week and I am very impressed with the collection!

This collection can be divided into 2 sections: the dark color palette series which focuses mainly on the silhouette and cutting, and the colour abstract print series. Once again, I am in love with the print and that suit is something I really want to own. Also, the man clutch is a nice accessory for a modern man and if it is going to be produced, I am sure I will be seeing some fashionistas carrying it next year. The loose fit silhouette might not be my cup of tea, but I know they will look very good on tall and lean men.

I am so happy for Kay Kwok for his first successful debut and I cannot wait to see what he will have in store for us in the following season!

Pros:
- I am in love with the prints once again. The abstract ring pattern suit is definitely a must have!
- There are a good selection of wearable pieces and the abstract print pieces will be good for editorials.
- I like the clutch, it should be a must have next year.
- The sandals might not be my cup of tea, but I have to say they have interesting designs.

Eye Candies:
- Ring suit
- Clutch
- V-neck sleeveless top
